INAUGURATION FOR HIMSI’S NEW PRESIDENT 2022-2023
On Wednesday, 3rd March 2022, a few representative students from BINUS University attended an Inauguration ceremony for the new Leader of the Student Organizations (OK) and Student Activity Units (UKM) in BINUS @ Alam Sutera. It was the second time the inauguration for the President of OK and UKM to be conducted hybrid due to the still ongoing pandemic, as it was done for the first time last year in 2021.
One of those students was our newly elected President of HIMSI, Handiko Wijaya, who was elected president based on an election that was held last year on October 1st. Some of the committee for HIMSI’s 2022 attended the Inauguration through Zoom. This year, HIMSI also introduced a new Board of Management which is going to manage the organization for the 2022/2023 term. They are Handiko Wijaya as the President and Mariane Shania as the Treasurer, both of them will also take the role of the Secretary (the newly appointed Secretary of HIMSI is facing a problem that is stopping him from doing his duties) .
The inauguration lasted for two hours from 8 to 10 a.m. which started with a dance performance then a video that introduced the new inaugurated President of OK and UKM. Later, the newly elected presidents walked forward to receive a special pin which was then attached to their alma mater jacket. The pin symbolized their positions in the OK or UKM. After receiving the pin, the elected presidents signed a paper for the formal ceremony. Then, a representative from the newly elected presidents came forward to read Janji Ketua Organisasi Kemahasiswaan. The rector of BINUS followed afterward with a speech. Thus, the official ceremony was ended, and closed by a performance by STMANIS and STAMANARA.
The inauguration is over, and HIMSI now is under new management. We can hope for the best of HIMSI as our newly elected president with the new BoM surely needs as much help as possible. Let’s work together to make HIMSI a better place. Again, congratulations to Handiko Wijaya as the new President of HIMSI and the rest of the new Board of Management for the period of 2022-2023!
